Seriously -- is Maggie Gallagher even capable of engaging in political debate, circa 2011, without resorting to the intellectually disingenuous idea that her "side" is being attached? This from Politico:

“The more that they attack Michele Bachmann on these grounds, the better her chances of winning the Iowa caucuses are,” said Maggie Gallagher, the president of the National Organization for Marriage, who said she’d admired Bachmann since 2004. “The Iowa base is extremely upset about same-sex marriage and I don’t think they’re going to look kindly on these attacks.”

The only way equality activists would not be on the "attack," in Maggie's world, is if we stopped accurately noting the words that conservatives (including Maggie herself) willingly put on the record, stopped pushing back against the heterosexism/homo-hostile stewardship, and completely threw in the towel in this "culture war" that the far-right declared against us. But that's not going to happen, so she's going to keep making these wrongheaded claims against the good and decent people who are simply taking a principled step forward. It's up to us to resist these offensive attacks against our families, characters, and mission.
